ANTH 250 — Introduction to Archeology
This course focuses on the theory and application of archaeology. Students will be concerned with interpretation of material remains of past cultures, and through the study of such evidence, attempt to recreate the history of humanity from its earliest past to determine the nature of cultural systems at different times and places. The nature of culture (material and non-material), excavation and dating techniques, major shifts in habitation patterns and subsistence techniques, and major prehistoric world civilizations are explored and emphasized.
